Mayors Choice PhotoArt65

Town of Halton Hills Mayor Rick Bonnette (right) had some difficult decisions to make after poring over nearly 400 entries from the recent PhotoArt contest, which has been conducted by the Halton Hills Camera Club for the past 34 years, in order to come up with the winner for his annual Mayor's Choice Award.

This year's winner is Greg Coman, whose rural Halton Hills home was left without power for seven days following the December ice storm, leaving him plenty of time to seek out some shots of the damage aftermath.

His shot of some icicles on a barbed-wire fence backlit by the sun on the Sixth Line named Wire & Ice, which Coman's spouse Mary Baxter describes as wine glasses without stems, was declared the winner of the 2014 Mayor's Choice Award.
